Strange Attractors: General 2D Map - Part 1
by Antonio Sánchez,
An R experiment to create images generated by the trajectory of a particle according to a strange attractor.
Made with Rcpp, ggplot2
Blog post explaining the experiment, Rcpp, Camarón de la Isla and the Beauty of Maths
Inspired by the book, Strange Attractors: Creating Patterns in Chaos, by Julien C. Sprott
